    THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! My daughter embellished a white body suit for an incoming Taylor Swift concert. She realized that she needed to put a zipper in after gluing on almost all the rhinestones. I do not have a lot of experience sewing especially on stretch. You're video was a lifesaver! I still can't believe I was able to do this and it looks pretty darn good for my 1st time. I still have to clean up the ends. Going to try and send you a pic.😀

    I'm in love with the second method, with the cleaner finish! I was wondering why the seam allowance is needed, since you sew the elastic into the actual seam? Do you think making it closer to dbl the width of the elastic would make a more snug fit once turned? Has anyone tried it? Maybe I'll try and report back!

    • @spandexsimplified
      @spandexsimplified 5 місяців тому

      If you do it tighter, the elastic will buckle inward.
